Yemen fighting pushes nearly 3,000 to Djibouti in less than a week: UN    Nearly 3,000 people have fled Yemen for Djibouti in less than a week as escalating violence drives growing displacement within the country and across its borders, the UN refugee agency said Friday. “Refugees continue to arrive by boat through Obock, Khor Angar, Moulhoule and Godoria after difficult journeys in small vessels,” UNHCR representative in Djibouti Sandrine Desamours told reporters in Geneva, Anadolu Agency reported. More than half of those crossing the Bab el-Mandeb Strait are women and children, while some families have been displaced for a second time after previously fleeing Yemen during the 2015 crisis and later returning. UNHCR is preparing for at least 10,000 new arrivals but warned that capacity is rapidly diminishing. Markazi refugee village, designed for 5,000 people, was already hosting more than 2,700 Yemenis and 1,500 Eritreans. More than 100,000 people have also been displaced ins...

 COMMANDER OPWS ENGAGES MIYETTI ALLAH LEADERS IN STRATEGIC STAKEHOLDER MEETING TO TACKLE INSECURITY IN BENUE STATE


In a renewed effort to decisively address the persistent security challenges plaguing Benue State and its environs, the Commander Joint Task Force Operation WHIRL STROKE (OPWS), Major General Moses Gara has convened a high  level security engagement with leaders of the Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders’ Association of Nigeria (MACBAN) at the Signature Hotel, Makurdi.


The closed door meeting, which brought together critical stakeholders including security agencies and local government authorities, focused on resolving long-standing issues such as farmer/herder conflicts, targeted and retaliatory killings, kidnapping, and cattle rustling factors that have significantly undermined peace and stability in the region.


Major General Gara reaffirmed the commitment of OPWS to restoring law and order through inclusive dialogue and multi-stakeholder collaboration. He urged MACBAN leaders to support the ongoing efforts by shunning acts of lawlessness, encouraging peaceful coexistence, and promptly reporting any threats to security. He further emphasized that sustainable peace is a prerequisite for agricultural revitalization and socio-economic development in Benue State.


"This meeting is a bold and necessary step toward isolating criminal elements, fostering mutual understanding, and promoting peaceful cohabitation among communities. Dialogue must supersede confrontation if we are to achieve enduring stability," Major General Gara asserted.


The Commander assured participants that grievances raised during the meeting would be escalated to the state government and relevant national authorities for redress. He also reiterated OPWS’s zero tolerance for impunity, stressing the imperative of upholding the rule of law in the pursuit of justice.


The initiative underscores a strategic shift towards proactive civil-military engagement aimed at de-escalating tensions, dismantling networks of violence, and creating a conducive environment for peacebuilding. All participants were charged to remain vigilant and committed to the resolutions reached, while encouraging communities to report infractions through legal and recognized channels rather than resorting to extra-judicial actions.


The outcome of this stakeholder meeting signals a new phase of partnership in confronting insecurity and rebuilding trust. If fully implemented, the agreed frameworks will bolster security architecture, reinvigorate the local economy, and improve the overall wellbeing of the citizens of Benue State.
